S2.11/E38: Repeat & Grow w/ Oscar Winner John Ridley

We did it! You've made it to the end of your first sustainable release cycle, while ensuring you're not missing any revenue along the way. Now what? It's time to go back to the beginning to deduce when you're "ripe" & ready to record. However, this should be empowering as you will learn this information in a deeper & more meaningful way each & every time you release music. Soon you'll be able to share this knowledge with musician friends in your life. But when is it time to wrap up a project and move onto the next? There is no better person to discuss this with than the ultimate multi-hyphen artist, Academy Award winner John Ridley. We hope you enjoy this in-depth conversation on how John has approached his plethora of projects throughout the years. Happy listening!
